YOE-ism

Wednesday: 28.12.05

I guess it was our final meeting up day. it did sad me up a bit, but i was trying to play cool with it, although we couldn’t really tell when we’ll gonna meet again.

so, this final day, i took him to midvalley, and yea, before i forgot, his friend came with us as well. i proposed to take him to OU instead of Midval cuz i strongly reckoned that midvalley was such a place for females! dun u think so, ladies? almost every shop there was meant for gurls. but he refused to cuz he agreed with a friend’s testimonial saying that midvalley was such a heaven to shop! and that friend was a gurl!

as they strode, i suddenly realized that there was some kind of monotonous look on their faces, then, i thought i should take them sumwhere else. see guys, told ya!

so, we went to One Utama and again, they were impressed!The mall was huge! well, people, what to say, malaysia is always something. ahaks!

we didn’t even stay long there, just to make sure their shopping list were all checked!plus, i had to leave early, attending my bro’s needs (his stationery, books n stuff) since my dad was away in penang. so, i had to play my part as a big sista before he started his school in 2006.

and i didn’t send them back to their hotel that day, really in rush to go back to klang. and if i did, then, they would torture me to death to cramp myself in a loathesome traffic jam of Kay eL. luckily, they were kind enuff to understand the situation ere, this is ain’t brunei, bros! ahaks!

so, i shall call it a day between me n zul. i touched my heart in many ways. hope he’ll be having better days next year and zul, do visit me again! hope to see u soon….

do keep in touch k? do ym or msn me as much as u do before k?right, need to off from work now.

Right, at last, after not seeing each other for almost a decade, I’ve finally met him ere in Kay EL! He used to be my best buddy back in Brunei, i knew him since we were 9!

Tuesday: 27.12.05

I arrived in front of his hotel at 9.15am, just opposite BB plaza, StarHiLL. and i think my colleague, safri, deserved credit for this cuz he was the one who drew me a perfect map for me to get there. seriously, it was accurate! Tx bro! so, i miss called him - an indication of my arrival, and just in the next 1 min, he was with me in my car, terrifically unbelievable! hehe,,,seriously i can’t stop smiling, and so did he, maybe both of us just still couldn’t believe that we finally met!

so, i took him to KLCC, and safri even mapped me from Star Hill to KLCC to arrive nicely in its parking lot. but, i was lost! this part of the map wasn’t that accurate, or maybe i was so frantically talkin to him cuz it shouldn’t be that hard i think, the signage to klcc was everywhere for God’s sake. n yea, my fault, i missed the turn.

But i made it finally, after few same turnings around the same areas! Relieved! We arrived in klcc, earlier than average i think, whereas most shops were still behind its ‘closed’ tag. so, we just tried to enjoy the moment with its beautiful ornamented Christmas tree - few pics were snapped there. and he was petrified with what he saw, let me quote him, "this place is huge." hehe, and i told him, wait until u saw Time Square! u’ll burn ur knees off!so,we went around and that time, 10.30am, my tums started to whine to be fed, but i tried to console it by walkin into Marks n Spencer. And yea, before that, we did go to Burger King since it’d been a year since the last time he ate it; in Singapore. In Brunei? nahh….no burger king there, ahaks! but it was 10am, so they were having breakfast meals instead, so, i was fine with that, we left and dropped again at 11am.

Marks n Spencer stuffs such a mind-blowing! can’t really resist but can’t really afford. obviously, woman’s stuffs are more expensive than man’s. so, he was luckier than me. he was a bit impressed with the price, it may sound quite pricey for us over ere but it’s definitely cheaper compared to Brunei’s market. Eg. one shirt is around rm180, which also carries the same figure in brunei, but in their Brunei dollars and when converted, it’s gonna be rm360! so, he could afford to buy another M&S over ere. and for that reason he spent more than rm1K there, and as i quoted that day, "it’s only 500 brunei dollars by the way", with cute shrieking giggles.

and since his shopping adrenalin was rising, we had walked from end to end of each level of Suria KLcc! and for that reason, i had four blisters on my toes - 2 at each side. prettier feet now nay?

i refused to stay longer there - just not to fight with traffic jam which about to occur in the next 1-2 hours. and i’ve sent him back to his hotel at 3pm that day. plus, i was exhausted! really did.

but the best part besides my excitement seeing him again in front of me, he did some deeds to me, really nice and cosy appreciation towards a long lost friend!

it’s been a week i’m away from internet connection since i’m no longer available to it at home. Argh,,,too much spywares affected my home pc, which caused troubles, and not to mention the trillions of pop-ups appeared everytime i tried to connect to the internet. anyway, i think being in the office, while i don’t have much things to do now, it is very wise for me to do some modifications towards my blog.

i did mention last week that i was so excited upon 2 things: my co’s annual dinner and my bruneian friend’s arrival in KL. so, both events are done now, and i’m proud to annouce that both things went off very well. but of course, there are definitely some flaws ere n there and i will mention em later on. nothing’s perfect right?

The dinner was ok, and just like i stated my previous blog, i din’t really fancy chinese food but that night, all of the dishes were ok, still can swallow it though! hehe,,,i even had sea cucumber, which looked awful but tasted quite, erm, ok i think..a bit slimey and soft but it wasn’t that bad after all. the lucky draws were never a lucky thing for me, i’ve never won any in my entire life! how pathetic! the prizes were really good, i wish i can win the rm100 voucher from metrojaya instead. i dun think kamal needed it more than me!hahahhaha!the hotel was great, the design was superb, definitely a brilliant spot for photographing! and believe it or not, we even snapped few pics in its bathroom, what a bunch of geeks!

o gosh, early mornin, and i’m very starving at the moment. i’m gonna get something to stuff my tums, shall be back shortly for a different story of another anticipation.

Well people, tonight will be Wolters Kluwer’s annual dinner in Le Meridien, and i supposed, since it’s confirmed, i have been very frantic about it.

At first, few colleagues and i were planning to get a hotel room - just a resort to get ourselves prepared before attending the dinner which starts at 7pm. We tried to make few calls asking them bout daily rates of their rooms and they came by saying it was 175++ but the worst thing is, it’s restricted to some kind of duration which was 10am-6pm. I coaxed them, how bout if up till 7pm instead? but it was any hotel’s rule - if it’s more than 6pm, then it’s considered as overnight rate! no way we’re gonna pay for overnight rate for just an hour extra!

so, the plan was abolished, so, to simplify the moment, since we definitely do not want to get stuck in any crampy traffic jam, a colleague of mine; ellie, suggested for us to bathe at her house and we just crash ourselves with make-ups and all those dinner gowns at the hotel itself! i’m not sure how it’s gonna be, but pls God, do make it as smooth as possible!

i’ll be on leave till 28 of december, meaning that i’ll be back to work on 29th. if only i have any extra annual leave, i would take a long row till nu year! unfortunately, all those leaves are gone!

y i’m on leave? and now is another anticipation; an old friend from brunei is coming this monday to meet me!!!!really anxious actually! tentatively, i’ll be his companion for few days when he’s ere - a tour guide to be exact. so here is my another prayer; I really hope everything goes fine, pls don’t make me lost in any of KL’s perplexing roads, it would embarrass me to death! not with him plss….and do let him to behave himself well…treat me right. hehe….what kinda treat is that?

anyway, i shall clarify further in d coming week. pls, pls, do let everything goes fine!

may good days are meant for me…

i was out with erra lastnight, went to tmn warisan - it was my 1st time there, thanks to her, or else i would never discover anything nice here in putrajaya. to be exact, i never really have a heart to try to look for any amusement around ere cuz i know there’s nothing to be compared from what i’ve always love to be.

we didn’t actually enjoy the food, in fact for me, it was bad!but at least, the environment was so serene, i can hear my guffaw as loud and clear as always.

we had few photo shots, which was so enjoyable - but frankly speaking, i was a bit exhausted lastnight, couldn’t really enjoy the beautiful moments, but still, things went well. tx erra, great pics all the way!

time went so fast, my head was hit by drowsiness, and it was time for us to head back home. back in the car, we were talking bout our future, what God has actually prepared for us.

i’m seriously terrified if i keep on thinkin who will be my future beau, spend my whole entire lifetime with him. will he be honest to me till d end? will he pay all expenses when i need to do some shopping? will he take care of the kids as well as a mother would?will he bear my bad temperament, bad whining nature? would he love me the same way when my body figure start to get flabby here n there? adoii,,,takotnyerr…!!

my mom once told me, " a woman can bear any bad habit of her partner, but not anything to do with another woman." i think it’s true indeed.

erra n i went on talking in d car, until to the extent, she told me that she had a do’a to help ourselves to know who is our fated partner. i really need of that, although i’m horribly terribly anxious to know bout it. what if that person is d one i oredi knew for a long time? what if the person is the one i hate most in my life?? God knows what is the best for us, n i really hope He will save me from all scary ideas which already occupied my head for a long time bout men. It’s not merely ideas, it’s indeed things that happened around me, which might draw me to unmarried status for few years from now.

Today, i would like to share some of my expressions about a frend of mine, D. after we had some tiring shopping moments in klcc and nichi, i went at her place- spend my night there. it was the first time that i saw she as a mother cuz all this while, we were in the office, i take her as a normal friend, just like my other friends back in uni time. but as the moment i went to her house, i suddenly realized one thing, "am i too old?" cuz her kids definitely gonna address me as auntie cuz im their mom’s frend or "is D is too young to become a mother?"

she indeed got married in her sophomore time, which is a contributing factor for her to have 2 kids as she reaches her 26th bufday. anyway, what i’m impressed here is, her first kid is stepping into his 5th bufday next year, whilst the second is upcoming 3 years old and when both of them need her sole attention, she can just attend to any of their request at one time, regardless her daily’s exhaustion. she seems so cool, handles them perfectly, and i dunno if i can be as strong as her in my own mother’s time.hehe….

that night, her younger son had being infected by food poisoning, which caused him to vomit all over the bedroom, and despite her restless night, she still can wake up and got her son cleaned up. seriously, i was touched. the other son was such a hassle, kept bothering her, askin her to switch on this and that cds, but she just had it under control without scolding him while she was in a tensed situation handling her own fatigue, drowsiness and the other sick son.

she’s absent today, she’s on MC, and i can feel that i’m lost without her. she’s so far the best companion i have here in my workplace.

get well soon, d…

It was a surprise for me to leave the shopping mall so early that day cuz i used to loaf around until the shop closed down. but D and i were holding another plan; heading to Nichi fashion in Sg Besi since she still

we reached there finally, it closed at 9.30, and we were right in front of the door at 9! Lucky us! the price was really enlighting! haha!! if i was skinny, i might grab almost evything there! so now there’s a wisdon for me to remain fat! d price started at rm 8! unbelievable! but nutting much for me, i just grabbed a asymmetrical skirt and a blouse - which only cost me rm30! rm 15 each! isn’t that heaven….

so, we went off after the shop closed, and i crashed at D’s place later that night.

I wouldn’t blame my fate for my sickness that 2 days but due to it, i was overloaded with things-to-do on the next day. my official mailbox was about to puke due to the outrageous copiousness of mails that i received from those who were workin together with me on this one, fine product. They were saying many things which added pain to my head, and my hands just didn’t know which one to start.

pLus, later this day, i needed to leave off earlier since i was asked by few of my colleagues accompanying them to look for what-to-wear to the upcoming dinner we’ll hold in Le Meridien. So, we were planning to step into KLCC - although i never really liked this place that much since i always prefer OU or midval to shop for things. but since all the huntings had been made, KLCC left as one of our last resorts to look for better choices.

so, we went there with full of zest, i was still on medication that day, can’t really put my pace normally but as i saw all those discount tags were hanging ere n there, plus, MNG was on big sale, my fever seemed to subside. but of course, my flu still obstructed my movement - i got tired easily.

i didn’t get myself anything except for a fury, black bag in MNG. i wuz so delighted that day since one of my colleagues, D, got herself a dinner tote from Topshop - it was sparking silver PVC, i think i should envy her regarding this. hihi…then, she even bought another bag for casual use in Dorothy Perkins which also by my recommendation.

another frend, Az, went into Edmundser since it was on sale tooz! and she was petrified with one fine, flair red dress which was on sale of 70%! i just can’t believe it! the original price was 4++.++, but after discount, it went down to 1++.++!! incredibly amazing! i was so excited for her, she even stared at me saying, "i wonder y r u so happy?" hahaha,,,,well, that is my nature - i just can’t help myself to feel the joy of others when they manage to dress up nicely.

we stuffed our tums with burger king cuz i was violently starving! and that was the nearest place to walk to after we went into parkson. we ate like millennium cavemen, the hollow in my tum was killin me!

we didn’t actually footling around after that, but to go back home straightaway. i can’t help the burnin feeling down my feet, need to sit now….

It’s been more than a week i haven’t got my chance to update the blog…many things have gone wrong for the past few days which lead to my work distraction and definitely, my emotion.

The last time that i’ve tweaked my blog was 2 fridays back - which is reaching 10 days and of course, i’ve got some stories that i preservered for quite some time, just to belch it our ere; in my blog.

Last 2 sundays was sultan selangor’s buffday which contributed to my holiday on the monday. apparently, everyone who is normal will be so happy with the addition holiday, which drags from the weekend. But i was among the unlucky people who suddenly fell sick on monday morning which became the chipping-in factor for me to have another 2 more days of holidays. (MC for goodness sake). I obviously loved being away from work for quite some time, just lying down in my bed, fantisizing and such.

But yea, my days weren’t that easy, i’ve caught up with really terribe huge fat flu- also the biggest contributing factor to my fever, my phlegm, and my wheezing lungs!! arghh! and up till today, i’m still not fully recovered. I’ve gone to the clinic 3 times to inhale some gas (i dun know what it’s called medically) to ease my wheezing sound. I’ve got better inhalation after that, but some kind of trembling gestures had happened after i took that gas which deteriorate my sight, and my hearing. I couldn’t do any car driving since my knees and my hand were all shaking! These things had crashed me in my bed for 3 days. Terribly bad! and i wonder hows dying is supposed to feel?

but let me share with u another thing; my company has just signed up with an insurance agency to cover its employees’ medical fees, life and warded insurances which also lead all of us to go to panel clinics instead of our normal fave spots. (well, nak free laa katekan..). so, the policy is, we should go to a panel clinic which is within 5kms from our residency area, and surprisingly, i have the panel clinic just in front of my housing area - it’s situated not even 2 kms! thats it! and now i have no reason to go to my fave clinic but this panel!

It was quite quiet when i reached the clinic, but i assumed everything should go fine, so, without hesitation, i handed over my insurance card, and not even 5 mins, i was in with the doctor! whereas when i went to my fave doc, i will have to wait, never lesser than 40 mins! after the inhalation, she wrote me the appropriate prescription, and i asked for MC for the next 2 days, cuz i know my disease well, i won’t fully ok with only 1 day MC. But, since i went on monday, which was already a holiday, she only gave me 1-day MC which was on Tuesday.

I went to the clinic again on the Tuesday, since my lungs were hurt badly everytime i sneezed, so, again, another inhalation cuz i wuz still wheezing. and i asked the doc for another MC - for wednesday but she refused to, and she asked me to come again on wednesday morning if i wuz still feeling unwell. if i wuz ok, i can proceed to my office. O God! obviously, i was really sick! but still she asked me to back n forth to the clinic just for an MC. but as a wrap-up, i tried my best on wednesday mornin to get up to work, but as i walked down from my room to the front door, i almost slipped off the staircase due to this dizziness, so then i realized that i wasn’t ready for office yet. my mom took me to the clinic again to redeem another MC but the doc wasn’t in. so, i had to go back home again and came again at 10am.

i dunno how many times i’ve been goin to this clinic, even the medicine didn’t work that well on me. and due to what happened, i dun think i will go to this clinic again! They are so strict on MC- saying that the insurance agency will check on them again n again n y this one patient needs MC? arghh! aku cam nak mmpos dah time tu…byk songeh laa plak…there’s another panel clinic on the other side, and this one might reach 5kms from my house. i’ll try my luck nextime but if it gives me the same problem, i’m willing to pay my fave clinic but i doubt one thing; will the MC be valid?

My workplace had confirmed this mornin that our annual dinner is gonna be held at Le Meridien. It’s really surprising that we managed to get hold of its ballroom although some last-minute work has taken place. It was definitely colliding with some other functions - since Christmas is just around the corner. But here we are, finally!

I may be a bit anxious of what to wear that grandeur night (expecting so), but I think the selection of food is much much scarier. They have come up with an idea of chinese food which i don’t think has ever become my fave food in my entire life! However, i hope things aren’t as horrible as I’ve been thinking all this while!

As far as i’m concerned, Le Meridien is better off with lebanese food, and i don’t know how the idea of chinese food comes around. But, nothing more to say, it’s fully sponsored by the company, we just need to get our pretty arses out there. Yikes!!

Monday is a holiday for us in Selangor! KLrian, pls stay out from being jealous k?

Gtg now, i’m actually anticipating better week is comin my way since i’m out of things-to-do this week. I’m seriously tousled with it.

have a great weekend ya’ll!
